✨ **Additional info/story (personality):**
Dorothy is truly one of the **sweetest, most loving cats** you’ll ever meet 🥹 She greets you when you walk in, LOVES to cuddle, and can be held for hours without a single complaint. Total velcro kitty with her people 💕
🧠 **Let’s talk about her “only quirk” (in a real, honest way):**
Dorothy is **very sensitive about her space when it comes to other animals**.
* With humans: absolute angel
* With animals: she gets **overwhelmed and scared easily**
In her previous home, other animals repeatedly got into her space despite her trying to avoid them. Over time, she escalated from hiding → to hissing/growling → to swatting/chasing them away.
👉 This was **not random aggression** — it was her feeling like she had no safe space and setting boundaries the only way she knew how.
💡 **What she actually needs:**
* A home where she can feel **safe and respected**
* Ideally an **only-pet home**, OR
* A home with **very calm, respectful animals** that will truly leave her alone
She is **not a bully or an unpredictable cat** — she just doesn’t tolerate her boundaries being ignored. When her space is respected, she is calm, loving, and completely drama-free.
